Canon PowerShot ELPH 510 HS Digital Camera Review

Canon PowerShot S100 Comparison

Canon's own PowerShot S100 is not a travel zoom camera, it maxes out a 5x, but a comparison here illuminates just how much can be achieved in a small body when zoom isn't an issue. The S100 is by far the best camera of this comparison group, and offers sharp images that are free of noise, and a detailed control suite that provides tons of flexibility.

The extra performance comes with an even bigger price tag, but still the chief difference here is zoom ratio. We've included this comparison in the hopes of causing prospective buyers to question whether or not a travel zoom is really necessary for them. For an extra 25 yards' worth of magnification, give or take, you may be sacrificing more than you think.
